Electricity.Bill pending against IMFA Company of Baijayant Panda

Electricity.Bill pending against IMFA Company of Baijayant Panda
Dear friends
There was wild allegation by supporters of Biju Janata Dal that IMFA has not paid electricity Bill amounting Rs. 830 crore. This issue was raised by a member of Biju Yuva Vahini in a public meeting of Dr. Damodar Rout organised at Baripada. Many people have raised this issue in social media with motive to defame Baijayant Panda.
Out of my curiosiry to know the fact, I had filed RTI to the Energy Department seeking information about exact electricity bill pending against IMFA. On 3.12.18, the PIO, office of the Engineer-in-Chief, Electrical has provided the information that total amount of Rs. 480,35,87,130.00 is pending against IMFA upto October 2018. But IMFA has gone to Supreme court against the said bill imposed by Govt. The matter is subjudice.
It deserves to mention.here that more Rs. 6000 crore electricity bill is pending against companies in Odisha since last several years. The State Govt. is seen helpless to collect it from.these Companies.
